We’re a non-profit that gives away free healthy food to those in need while preventing food from going to landfills

Food Haven

We accomplish two things through Food Haven. One is reducing food waste by stocking the pantry with excess food from restaurants, local grocery stores, and farms. The other is providing healthier food options, regardless of race and status.

Why Food?

4.6 million Texans face food insecurity amid inflation

Our Partners

The WOW Project’s programs would not be possible without the support and financial backing of the following organizations

Houston Healthiest Pantry

Here, you'll always find a variety of bagged salads (we're not big on iceberg lettuce) and a diverse assortment of fruits and vegetables. Plus, when our garden beds are ready for harvest, we offer fresh veggies directly from our garden! Healthy living isn't just about what you eat—it's also about how you act. In line with our commitment to sustainability, we don’t provide single-use bags. Instead, we encourage everyone to bring their own bags for taking food home. It doesn’t get any healthier or more sustainable than that!
